Ive heard good things about Mad Max. Especially for $5.

But Im swamped between Destiny, NHL, Golf Story, and Stardew Valley Switch.

Might get back into Isaac and I want to get Cuphead. Too many games.

Anyone up for games tonight.

so many good games... freaking Battle Chasers is an indie JRPG style game that looks pretty cool for an indie game... and Dragon Dogma, oh my. i loved that game on 360.. the remastered looks pretty with the updated gfx and that's a 60+ hr game.. lol. for 30 bucks.

Damn, well unless Vis gets on no way I'll be up then. I go to bed around 9cst, as I work at 6am. I'm off Sunday/Thursday, so the nights prior I can play later.

Unfortunately, I do not read French, so I can't decipher their menu. However, the pics of the food looks very good. I have never really had French cuisine (when we went to Montreal, we only went to bars and stuff, then went to some steak house) and I always wanted to try it. Maybe not snails though...probably not snails...def not snails lol

Ya Jack Astors and Boston Pizza is super popular in Ontario.. theres also Shoeless Joe's and Philty McNasty's thats getting up there but those are more sports bar and grills

St-Hubert, Scores, Bennys, Swiss Chalet are all just chicken type dishes with fries.. nothing specisl but dirt cheap so always busy

So I fucked around as a goalie in 3 drop in games. Gave 2 goals, 2 goals, 5 goals. Anyone have any experience playing goalie? I think Stat does (not sure if you were kidding). Do I need to do anything to make a save or is it more just be in front of the puck and the game will do its own save animation?

I was hitting R2 to make saves and basically I was sliding all over the place in butterfly and would get killed on rebounds.

Any tips or anything like that would be really helpful.

Firstly, drop-ins really suck.

Saves are automatic. You have to be in the best position and it will make its own save animation but sometimes, there is a bit of luck. Like your goalie should have an easy glove save but doesn't move his glove enough.

I think you can switch your goalie controls so R2 doesn't slide around as much,. Unfortunately, quality of teammates varies in drop-ins so ideally, your rebounds should be your defenders responsibilities.

Yeah, rebounds were automatic goals bc no one was there to clear then away. It's ok though, I don't care much bc it's drop ins. Just want to try to get better

Whenever they changed the goalie controls it became booty to play as a goalie.

Totally 100% agree.

Practice helps but goalie controls are really tough in this game and not fun. Personally, Im excited to go against a human goalie in EASHL because I think its 100x easier than a CPU Goalie

Playing goalie is still kinda fun for me. I used to be a goalie when I was in my teens and 20s, so I enjoy it. Just want to keep the drop in team in it and not get blown out lol

More power to you. I think goalie is fun, just needs lots of fixing so dont feel too bad if you give up rebounds. I personally think crosscreases and rebounds aren't a goalies fault in EA NHL Games
